Goood morning all from a slightly murky south coast. I'll be finished work in an hr I've got a full tank in the van and my inverter turned up for the laptop......time to chase !!!!! Where to begin is the question. I don't have access to the full charts just basic and from what that shows me I kinda like the wind profiles north of Brighton ish. There's a slightly stronger jet from what I've seen and coupled with convergence zone / backed winds we have some shear potential. But will I end up playing catch up when it all kicks of to the west?? Is there anywhere offering free charts and live wind Maps that I could refine/ adjust my plans as needed. Good luck everyone- 3,835 replies

Morning all. That time of year again where we all get ridiculously excited and generally massively disappointed. I'll be finishing work climbing Telecom towers (hopefully before any storms fire) and heading out on the road today for my first chase of the year. Wish me luck luck and I'll post any cool pics or vid should the thunder god's smile on me- 3,835 replies
